The Cabinet of Dr.Caligari

This film was very different from anything I would normally choose to watch but there were still aspects I could appreciate. The funky sets I recognized was an aspect of the surrealist nature of the film. The slanted almost melty structures of the buildings were disorienting and spooky. This made sense once I found out the entire flashback was a fantasy. It was a creation of a mad individual. The start of the film was slow, but the end was the most enjoyable. The tinting was neat, but the scene changes really annoyed me.
